Basketball drills

• Depends on the number of balls. 
• In pairs or alone
• When alone:
  • Start at your position, dribble across the basket. 
  • Set or Jumpshot from your position (Guard, forward, center). 
  • Up to 8 points.
• In pairs: 
  • Start at your position, pass to the opposite side of the basket. 
  • Last pass should be good so that shooter in jumpshot is ready for his/her shot. 
  • Up to 4 points per player. 
  • Losers: Slides over the width of the pitch, 1x back and forth.

• You make 2 teams divided over 2 baskets.
• Dribble around the post and pick a side.
• Run a lay-up.
• The first to reach the proposed number of scores wins.
• The losing team must run to the back line and back. (start on the back line and run to the back line)

• 2 groups at the level of the free throw line.
• Left side passes to players coming from the right side cut in.
• Option 1: lay-up.
• Option 2: shot in front of the hoop.
• X number of shots in succession.
• Left and right sides.
• Own rebound and pass.

• Players line up in 2 groups on the same side of the field (sideline).
• Everyone except the first two in line have a ball.
• The players without ball run to the opposite side of the field. (top of key) 
• The first player with the ball dribbles to the 3 point line on the side where he is standing and passes the ball to the incoming player at the top.
• When he takes the ball. (Swing the ball, fake, crossover, drive and finish with lay-up.)
• The player who passed the ball runs to the other side of the court where his drill begins.
• On one side L and other side R lay-up.

• One player of each team dribbles to the hoop, zigzagging through the poles.
• The player takes one hat from the hoop and puts it on his/her head.
• The player dribbles with the hat back to his/her own hoop.
• The player dribbles back to his/her own hoop, takes the hat off his/her head and puts it in the hoop.
• The player gives the ball to the next player and the next player can leave.

• Prior to the exercise, we first stretch and run a suicide.
• The ball is in the middle.
• Two persons run backwards on the starting signal to the back line, then first to get hold of the ball on the middle line.
• A 1-on-1 situation then arises here in which the person with the ball attacks and the other must defend.

• Player sprints from the corner baseline to the first post.
• At the first post a drop step and slides towards the second post.
• From the second post, backward defensive footwork to the third post.
• At the third pole a dropstep followed by slides to the fourth pole.
• You do this until you are back at the starting point.

• 5 x 2 free throws.
• 2 groups side by side.
• Each takes turns shooting.
• Count how many in.
• 2 misses = length of run.
• 1 miss = half length run.

Two rows on the center line, 1 player in the corner on the baseline.

• Beginning with right layups:
  • Ball is with the proposal player in the right row.
  • First player in left row runs to the forward.
  • Player with ball passes ball to player in left row.
  • Player in left row makes a jump stop.
  • Player in right row touches sideline at free throw line and makes a cut to the basket.
  • Player with ball passes to other player at correct time (other player asks for ball).
  • Player right row makes layup. (Pay attention to correct two-count rhythm)
  • Player in left row catches the ball (active rebound!) and passes to the player in the corner. (no ball on the ground!)
  • Player in the corner passes ball to next player in line.
  • Catcher becomes player in the corner.
  • 15 scores.
• Next:
  • left layups - 15 scores --> pay attention to correct two-count rhythm, otherwise score does not count!
• Points of Attention:
  • Pay attention to correct two-count rhythm.
  • Pay attention to correct hand. (left lay-up with left hand)
  • Make sure that tight passes are made, in front of the man (so that the receiving player does not have to slow down in her movement to the basket).

• 4 Players on the baseline.
• Player B has ball and dribbles to the cone.
• B passes to player C.
• B and C go to goal.
• Player A and D sprint around the cone and start defending.

• 3 teams of 3 players
• 3 players in the middle
• Attacking
• Defense up to the center line, even after ball loss

• The idea is for the player with the ball to get past a 100% giving defender in 3 dribbles.
• The scoring player stays put, misses then goes out and the defender may attack against a new person.
• The goal is for the player to give everything during this exercise.
• Here the attacker is forced to be explosive and use his whole body.
